I miss hearing the train whistle at the MK.

I miss the parks as a whole - and were I there - I'd certainly miss this.

Not having Disney in my life makes me unhappy....

Not just this, but the music of Main Street. I love walking down Main Street USA and hearing those old-timey classics like "A Bicycle Built For Two." Hopefully we'll all be back soon!

Plenty of places online to hear the music of Main Street!

Sure, but it doesn't beat the in person experience. Plus the smells!

I missed the train whistle on our last several trips! Can not wait until it is up and running again

I miss the man saying all aboard. The original one especially.

Ahh, the smells. They bring me back more than the music does.


I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

My son, now 17, misses that train whistle and train ride - so much! We all do, too, as a family, but he's the one that mentions it when we go. He's loved it since we was a little toddler. I'll never forget when he was about 4 - we rode the train first, all the way around the park because it was his favorite. As soon as we were disembarking he said with a little grin, "Okay. We can go now." Such an iconic Disney sound!

We got one of the last trips before it closed down, love the steam train and both DH and I would love to do the Behind the Steam trains tour. Maybe one day.
On a side note, does anyone know where the track will run in relation to Tron when it's back. i've looked at aerial shots but can't work it out.
